Belfast merchants are having large quanti-
ties of goods shipped from Boston by sail

take all the freight offered. The outlook for
small coasters is good. The Matthews Bros,
who are having lumber come from the South
billed through to Belfast by rail, have ordered
the cars stopped at Boston or Portland, and
the lumber reshipped to Belfast by water, so
that it costs little if any more thsn under the
former all-rail rates. Their finished work

INCREASE OF THE MINISTRY.

Rev. w. III. Ryder, d. D., for the
committee on the increase of the min
istry, appointed at Akron last Octo-
Der, sends the following circular, to
which answers are requested by April
Is. We give the circular prominent in
sertion in order that it may again be
brought to the attention of our pastors,
and the committee aided in their i'm
pOrtant duties:
At the session for 1885 of the Massa-
chusetts Universalist Convention, a re-
port was adopted calling attention to
the need of the increase of the minis
try and the more thorough education of
candidates for the ministry; in accord
anee with a recommendation of this re-
port, committee of three was chosen
to devise measures to serve these ends,
and it was voted to memOrialize the
other Conventions in New England for
the appointment of similar committees
to act jointly in carrying on the work.
AT the session of the General Conven-
tion held at Akron in 1886, the Board of
Trustees reported upon the same matter,
urging its Importance and recommend
ing the appointment of such committees
by the Conventions of all the States. In
response to this recommendation of the
General Convention the authorities of
the several New England Conventions
have appointed their committees; the

SAMUEL D. HUNTINGTON,

By the recent decease OF Samuel d
Huntington, the Blue Island parish has
lost one of its Oldest and staunchest men,
bers, our faith one of it's most faithful
and fearless advocates, and humanity at
large one of its most sympathetic and
generous-hearted friends.
Samuel d. Huntington was born at
Hanover, N. H., Sept. 26, 1919. He came
to Blue Island about forty-five years ago,
and having lived full, round life of
sixty-seven years, and although still Wig
orous and giving promise of remaining
many years longer in the flesh, was called
home, after suffering few days from a
severe attack of rheumatism, which cul-
minated in paralysis.
The greater part of his illness was at
tended with acute pain, but was also at
tended with that fortitude and goodness
which ever marked the man. The last
hours were more restful, however, and
the spirit took it's flight peacefully.
When first attacked he said to the
writer: don't know what the outcome
will be. l may pull through, and I may
not; but then, that doesn't worry me g
particle; I don't suppose there is any one
who looks at it more philosophically than
do. OF course, I'd like to live as long
as possible, but if they want me I'm ready
to 60" This was his simple confession az
to his state of mind at that time, and by nc
| subsequent word or act did he gainsay
that statement. Another illustration OF
the fact that Universalism will "do to
| die by"
Uncle Huntington, as he was always
called, was one of those large men; large
not only in body, but with heart to cor
respond. He was somewhat rough in his
way, but his roughness was all on the
outside. At heart he was as tender as q
child. Rev. Florence Kollock, who was
his former pastor, and who took part in
the funeral services, said on this point,
that she did not remem Der of ever preach
ing sermon which contained anything
to touch the feelings, or appeal to the
sympathies, that she did not see the tears
standing in his large, kindly eyes, OF
chasing one another down his rugged
cheeks. And it was so. His heart was
ever open to the appeal of suffering, and
responsive to the touch of tenderness and
love. There was nothing little or mean
or stingy about him. He was large; large
in thought, large in feeling, large in sen.
timent. He was magnanimous in all
things.
Mr.. Huntington leaves sister who re-
sides in New York State, two sons, Henry
who is conductor on our suburban trains
Walter, who is train dispatcher at Engle.

of our most successful instructors and is
